Wing. From the St James Hotel, drive to the river. Make a left and head to
the first large grain elevator on the right. The bird was sitting on some

Vern and I watched the Brown Pelican at Bay Point Park, Red Wing from 4:45 to
5:10 pm today. It was resting on a dock by a pilon where the floating boat

- Mallard many
- Great Blue Heron 1
- American Goldfinch 2-3
- Common Crow fly-overs
- Pied Billed Grebe1
